Abstract:

Extreme temperatures have increasingly played an important role in engineering applications, including leading edges during hypersonic flight, spacecraft re-entry, and propulsion systems. In order to design for such thermo-mechanical conditions, materials must be characterized using suitable measurement methods. DIC is a popular and versatile method in full-field measurement. In brief, DIC compares images of a sample between its undeformed and deformed state in order to get displacement and strain field maps. Since the images are acquired from digital cameras, it is important to have high contrast images for meaningful correlation. Exposure time is a pivotal camera setting relating to camera sensitivity. Alteration in exposure time results in variation of image contrast, thereby affecting DIC correlation. Also, it is well known that at extreme temperatures, materials emit light which can saturate DIC camera sensors, but the light can be mitigated using optical bandpass filters. In previous work, many have shown that blue bandpass filters can effectively extend the temperature range of DIC, and our lab has shown that ultraviolet (UV) filters can extend the range further. In this thesis, four different temperatures: room temperature, 1300°C, 1450°C, and 1600°C were tested by rigid-motion experiments. At each temperature level, UV images were acquired in order to examine the variation of DIC error over the whole range of exposure time. UV images were acquired at exposure times ranging from 500μs to 61,000μs, which are the minimum and maximum possible values for the cameras used in this thesis. The results showed that there were higher errors of UV-DIC at extremely dark or bright exposure times where as errors were generally insignificant at intermediate exposure times. In order to perform meaningful DIC up to 1600oC, the exposure time for the camera used in this thesis is suggested to be set between 10,000μs and 40,000μs.

Abstract:

The primary objective of this research is to conduct further evaluation of ultrasonic digital image correlation (UT-DIC) on strain map analysis and defect detection of adhesive joints with embedded speckle pattern. UT-DIC is a non-destructive evaluation method that utilized ultrasonic C-scan images for whole field strain and displacement analysis. Acrylic glass, epoxy resin system and metal shavings with high acoustic impedance of a specific weight were used to create the samples which were loaded under tension. Defects with varying shapes and sizes were implemented by surface preparation to understand the limits of this approach. UT-DIC and optical DIC strain map results were compared, and it was found that each approach detected certain shapes of defect better than the other.

Abstract:

Cette thèse s'intéresse à l'amélioration de la prévision de l'éclatement des pièces tournantes des turbomachines. L'axe de recherche principal a été celui de l'identification du comportement du matériau jusqu'à rupture pour des sollicitations multi-axiales représentatives et l'identification des conditions de rupture locale elles mêmes. Pour cela une approche basée sur la corrélation d'image numérique intégrée a été suivie. L'autre axe abordé dans cette thèse a été celui de la prévision objective et robuste de la rupture par la mécanique de l'endommagement dans le cadre de simulations explicites utilisant des techniques de scaling pour diminuer les temps de calcul. Deux matériaux ont été étudiés, un alliage titane TA6V et un alliage nickel Udimet 500. Des éprouvettes ont été définies pour permettre d'avoir des sollicitations proches de celles en service et pour permettre d'utiliser des techniques de mesure de champs. Un code commercial (ABAQUS) est utilisé dans une approche intégrée de la corrélation des images numériques (CIN). Le principe de ces méthodes est d'optimiser la corrélation directement à partir des paramètres du modèle sans passer par une procédure intermédiaire demandant de reconstruire préalablement les champs de déformations. Cette technique, qui peut-être vu comme très régularisante, confère à la méthode une grande robustesse, ce qui permet d'obtenir des informations même en présence de mouchetis dégradés lors des phases ultimes de chargement. L'ensemble des paramètres constitutifs des modèles peut alors être identifié avec un seul essai hétérogène. Dans l'étude un accent particulier a été mis sur l'analyse des champs de triaxialité, dont l'importance sur les conditions de rupture est suspectée, en utilisant des éprouvettes fines et des éprouvettes épaisses. Des lois de comportement ont pu être identifié pour des niveaux de déformations plastiques jusqu'à 3 fois supérieurs à ceux atteints dans des essais de traction uni-axiaux et ceci en présence d'adoucissement global. L'intégration étroite des essais et des simulations a également permis d'analyser l'état de déformation et contraintes des éléments proches de la surface de rupture juste avant celle-ci et ainsi de tester des critères de rupture potentiels avec un grand nombre de données. Pour la seconde partie de la thèse, plus exploratoire faute de temps, une étude préliminaire a porté sur la possibilité d'utiliser des modèles à taux d'endommagement limités combinés avec des techniques de scaling pour utiliser des simulations explicites dans le cadre de sollicitations centrifuges quasi-statiques. Les premiers résultats montrent qu'une accélération est possible avec des niveaux d'erreurs relativement bas sur les vitesses de rotation conduisant à la rupture et ceci dans des temps comparables avec des simulations implicites quasi-statique, l'avantage étant la robustesse des analyses en dynamique explicite This thesis addresses the amelioration of the burst prediction of turbo-engines rotating parts.The principal axis of this study was the identification of the material behaviour up fracture under multi-axial loading and the identification of the local condition at failure. To accomplish this, an integrated digital image correlation approach was employed.The other thematic axis of this thesis was the objective and robust prediction of rupture using the damage mechanics in the framework of explicit simulations and the study of the influence, on the prediction, of various scaling techniques used to decrease the computation time.Two materials were studied, the titanium alloy TA6V and the nickel alloy Udimet 500. The samples were defined to guarantee similar loading conditions as those in the disks in service and to allow the use of field measurement techniques.A commercial code (ABAQUS) is used in an integrated approach to Digital Image Correlation (DIC). The principle of this method is to optimize the correlation of the test directly with the model parameters without passing by an intermediate procedure requiring the reconstruction of the deformation field beforehand. This technique, which can be seen as highly regularising, grants a considerable robustness to the method, which allows obtaining information from degraded speckle patterns encountered at the end of the test. The entire set of constitutive parameters can be identified with only one heterogeneous test. Within this study, a particular accent was laid on the analysis of triaxiality fields by using thin and thick samples. The importance of these fields for the fracture conditions is suspected.Constitutive models were identified for plastic strains that were about three times higher than the ones achievable in uniaxial tensile test on smooth sample.The close integration of the experiments and simulations allowed the analysis of deformation and stresses of the elements near the failure surface at the instant just before failure. This allowed the testing of different criteria with a large amount of data.For the second axis of the thesis, preliminary studies examined the possibility to use limited damage rate models combined with scaling techniques. These latter allow performing explicit simulations in context of a centrifugal quasi-static loading. The results show that acceleration is possible. The errors of the rotational speeds, which lead to disk fracture, are relatively low. The simulation times are comparable to implicit quasi-static simulations, while the main advantage is the maintained robustness in explicit simulations

Abstract:

Previous modeling of wood materials has included many assumptions of unknown mechanical properties associated with the hierarchical structure of wood. The experimental validation of previous models did not account for the variation of mechanical properties present in wood materials. Little research has explored the uncertainties of mechanical properties in earlywood and latewood samples as well as wood strands. The goal of this study was to evaluate the effect of the intra-ring properties and grain angles on the modulus of elasticity (MOE) and ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of different orientation wood strands and to analyze the sensitivity of the MOE and UTS of wood strands with respect to these variables. Tension testing incorporating digital image correlation (DIC) was employed to measure the MOE and UTS of earlywood and latewood bands sampled from growth ring numbers 1-10 and growth ring numbers 11-20. A similar technique adjusted for strand size testing was also applied to measure the MOE and UTS of different orientation wood strands from the two growth ring numbers. The stochastic finite element method (SFEM) was used with the results from the earlywood and latewood testing as inputs to model the mechanical property variation of loblolly pine wood strands. A sensitivity analysis of the input parameters in the SFEM model was performed to identify the most important parameters related to mechanical response. Modulus of elasticity (MOE), Poisson ratio, and ultimate tensile strength (UTS) from earlywood and latewood generally increased as the growth ring number increased except for the UTS of latewood, which showed a slight decrease. MOE and UTS from radial, tangential, and angled grain orientation strands increased as the growth ring numbers increased while MOE and UTS from cross-grain strands decreased as the growth ring number increased. Shear modulus of wood strands increased as the growth ring number increased while shear strength decreased as the growth ring number increased. Poisson ratio from radial and angled grain strands decreased as the growth ring number increased while Poisson ratio from tangential and cross grain orientation strands increased as the growth ring number increased. The difference of average MOE from different grain strands between experimental results and SFEM results ranged from 0.96% to 22.31%. The cumulative probability distribution curves from experimental tests and SFEM results agreed well except for the radial grain models from growth ring numbers 11-20. From sensitivity analysis, earlywood MOE was the most important contributing factor to the predicted MOE from different grain orientation strand models. From the sensitivity analysis, earlywood and latewood participated differently in the computation of MOE of different grain orientation strand models. The predicted MOE was highly associated with the strain distribution caused by different orientation strands and interaction of earlywood and latewood properties. In general, earlywood MOE had a greater effect on the predicted MOE of wood strands than other SFEM input parameters. The difference in UTS between experimental and SFEM results ranged from 0.09% to 11.09%. Sensitivity analysis showed that grain orientation and growth ring number influenced the UTS of strands. UTS of strands from growth ring numbers 1-10 showed strength indexes (Xt, Yt, and S) to be the dominant factors while UTS of strands from growth ring numbers 11-20 showed both strength indexes and stress components (Ï 1, Ï 2, and Ï 12) to be the dominant factors. Grain orientations of strands were a strong indicator of mechanical properties of wood strands. Ph. D.

Abstract:

Adhesive bonding of graphite epoxy composite laminates to itself or traditional metal alloys in modern aerospace and aircraft structural applications offers an excellent opportunity to use the most efficient and intelligent combination of materials available thus providing an attractive package for efficient structural designs. However, one of the major issues of adhesive bonding is the occasional formation of interfacial defects such as kissing or weak bonds in the bondline interface. Also, there are shortcomings of existing non-destructive evaluation (NDE) methods to non-destructively detect/characterize these interfacial defects and reliably predicting the bond shear strength. As a result, adhesive bonding technology is still not solely implemented in primary structures of an aircraft. Therefore, there is a greater demand for a novel NDE tool that can meet the existing aerospace requirement for adhesive bondline characterization. This research implemented a novel Acoustography ultrasonic imaging and digital image correlation (DIC) technique to detect and characterize interfacial defects in the bondline and determine bond shear strength in adhesively bonded composite-metal joints. Adhesively bonded Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic (CFRP) laminate and 2024-T3 Aluminum single lap shear panels subjected to various implanted kissing/weak bond defects were the primary focus of this study. Kissing/weak bonds were prepared by controlled surface contamination in the composite bonding surface and also by improperly mixing the adhesive constituent. SEM analyses were also conducted to understand the surface morphology of substrates and their interaction with the contaminants. Morphological changes were observed in the microscopic scale and the chemical analysis confirmed the stability of the contaminant at or very close to the interface. In addition, it was also demonstrated that contaminants migrated during the curing of the adhesive from CFRP substrate which caused a decrease of bond shear strength in single lap shear test samples. Through-transmission ultrasonics (TTU) Acoustography at 3.8 MHz showed promising results on the detectability of bondline defects in adhesively bonded CFRP-Al lap shear test samples. A correlation between Acoustography ultrasonic attenuation and average bond shear strength in CFRP-Al lap shear panels demonstrated that differential attenuation increased with the reduction of the bond shear strength. Similarly, optical DIC tests were conducted to identify and quantify kissing bond defects in CFRP-Al single lap shear joints. DIC results demonstrated changes in the normal strain (εyy) contour map of the contaminated specimens at relatively lower load levels (15% ~ 30% of failure loads). Kissing bond regions were characterized by negative strains, and these were attributed to high compressive bending strains and the localized disbonding taking placed at the bondline interface as a result of the load application. It was also observed that contaminated samples suffered from more compressive strains (εyy) compared to the baseline sample along the loading direction and they suffered from less compressive strains (εxx) compared to the baseline sample perpendicular to the loading direction. This demonstrated the adverse effect of the kissing bond on the adhesive joint integrity. This was a very significant finding for the reason that hybrid ultrasonic DIC is being developed as a faster, more efficient, and more reliable NDE technique for determining bond quality and predicting bond shear strength in adhesively bonded structures.

Abstract:

Mechanical parameter characterization of very thin polymer films using digital im- age correlation is performed in this work. At present days DIC is widely used in the construction, food industries, and aviation. Despite advantages when compared to other conventional methods, but users still face difficulties with the analysis of thin polymers like low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) thin polymer films. For the application of sprays to obtain the best pattern quality as well as the potential of thin-film material properties tempering from the stochastic pattern paint. This research work will investigate the effect of several spray paints on the material response of thin polymer film. It also shows how to achieve good surface traction, time effect, and the type of spray to be used for DIC analysis. Finally, this research also studies how the width of the specimen affects the wrinkling effect, which is a common phenomenon while testing the thin polymer films and exhibits the appropriate width for reducing wrinkles on thin polymer films.

Abstract:

Stamping dies are used in the Sheet Metal Forming (SMF) process for manufacturing of car body parts. The lead time for design and manufacturing of a stamping die is long, and therefore costly. In the final step of the manufacturing process, manual rework is performed to reach a desired pressure distribution on the forming surfaces in order to achieve a robust process and an approved part within tolerance. The main purpose for this work is to study and further develop a Virtual Rework Method that alters the shape of the forming surfaces of a die to compensate for the displacements of a stamping press that occur during stamping. Measurements were performed to obtain the displacements that occur in the stamping press during stamping. These measurements were performed on a double action deep drawing press of the brand Danly, located at Volvo Cars Tool & Die department in Olofström, Sweden. The measurement yields information of how the stamping press is deflecting and deforming during operation. The measurements are recorded with a Digital Image Correlation (DIC) system that records the displacements of the press during stamping. The displacements obtained in the measurements are then used as constraints to inverse FE- model a press table with topology optimization. This optimized press table is used in the Virtual Rework Method to be able to simulate both the deformations of the press and the internal deformations that occur in the die. Pre-simulations were performed before the measurements to ensure that the blank holder plate used in the measurements would withstand the applied blank holder force. These simulations also yield if the displacements were large enough for the ARAMIS DIC system to capture. The FE-model used in this work consisted of a die, blank holder, blank holder plate, outer ram and the optimized press table. The Virtual Rework Method was applied on the FE-model, where the result concludes that the altered shape of the deformed forming surfaces is almost identical to the shape of the nominal forming surfaces. However, an inversed modelled structure that represents the behavior of the outer ram is required to apply the Virtual Rework Method on the blank holder. This inversed modelled structure could be created from the displacements obtained in the measurements. To apply the Virtual Rework method on the punch, further measurements are required, where the position of the ARAMIS DIC system is altered, or an additional ARAMIS DIC system is used.

Abstract:

Questo elaborato tratta l’applicabilità della Digital Image Correlation tridimensionale (DIC 3D) in seguito all’acquisto, da parte dell’Università di Bologna, di due fotocamere Basler a distorsione nulla. Per utilizzare le due fotocamere è stato scelto di processare le immagini con MultiDIC, un software opensource sviluppato su MATLAB, e per valutare la correttezza dell’analisi sono stati confrontati i valori di deformazione con quelli di un’analisi ad elementi finiti. Obiettivo di questa tesi è studiare il funzionamento della tecnica e validare un sistema di misura, che possa misurare deformazioni, tensioni e spostamenti senza contatto, in modo da poter essere un’alternativa alle tecniche tradizionali. Si vuole inoltre presentare una linea guida per eseguire il programma e discutere le principali problematiche incontrate durante le prove sperimentali.

Abstract:

Les superalliages base Nickel employés dans les disques de turbine sont soumis à des sollicitations sévères allant du fluage à la fatigue à des températures pouvant atteindre 700°C. Dans ces conditions, la littérature montre que les joints de grains sont l’élément structural le plus faible. En fonction de ces conditions, les joints de grains peuvent glisser, transmettre ou accumuler de la déformation et s’oxyder. Ainsi,l’endommagement intergranulaire est étroitement lié à ces processus de déformation.L’objectif de ces travaux est de contribuer à la compréhension des mécanismes de déformation et d’endommagement qui ont lieu aux joints de grains. Pour étudier de manière quantitative les premiers stades de plasticité et d’endommagements, une nouvelle approche de mesure sans contact prenant en comptes les discontinuités de déplacement est présentée : la Heaviside-DIC. Celle-ci a fait l’objet d’une validation avant d’être utilisée dans l’étude du glissement inter et intragranulaire à haute température. Une première étude qualitative a permis de mettre en évidence des endommagements intergranulaires plus importants en fluage à 700°C/700 MPa comparé à la traction à différentes températures. La mise en œuvre de la H-DIC à 2échelles couplée à l’EBSD, a permis d’identifier une configuration microstructurale néfaste dans les superalliages polycristallins pour disques de turbine : les joints de macles cohérents. La comparaison à un superalliage colonnaire pour aubes ne possédant aucun joint de macle confirme ces observations.A la lumière de ces résultats et en s’appuyant sur des travaux de la littérature, un scénario permettant d’expliquer la transition entre déformation et endommagement intergranulaire est proposé Nickel-based superalloys used in turbine disks are subjected to severe stresses ranging from creep to fatigue at temperatures up to 700°C. Under these conditions, the literature shows that grain boundaries are the weakest structural element. Depending on these conditions, the grain boundaries can slide, transmit or accumulate deformation and are favorable locations for oxidation. Thus, intergranular damage is closely related to these deformation processes.The purpose of this work is to contribute to the understanding of the deformation and damage mechanisms that occur at grain boundaries. To study quantitatively the early stages of plasticity and damage, a new non-contact measurement approach taking into account displacement discontinuities is presented: Heaviside-DIC. It was validated before being used in the study of high temperature inter and intragranular sliding. Afirst qualitative study has shown greater intergranular damage in creep at 700°C / 700 MPa compared to tension at different temperatures. The implementation of H-DIC at 2 scales coupled with EBSD, allowed to identify a detrimental microstructural configuration in turbine disks polycrystalline superalloys: coherent twin boundaries. Comparison with a turbine blade columnar superalloy with no twins confirms these observations.In this light, and based on literature, a scenario explaining the transition between deformation and intergranular damage is proposed

Abstract:

This dissertation contains the results from an experimental study, numerical, and analytical study conducted on quasi-isotropic carbon fiber laminates containing a center hole (notch) subjected to constant amplitude tension-tension fatigue loading in order to investigate the effect of fatigue damage development on the residual properties. Quasi-static tests were initially performed on notched composites using digital image correlation (DIC) to determine the strain profiles at selected transverse sections of the outer ply of the laminates and the static strength of the laminates. Subsequently, tension-tension fatigue tests were carried out at 70%, 75% and 80% of the nominal static failure load. A finite element model was developed using Abaqus and Digimat in which Digimat was used to implement the damage evolution model via a user-defined material subroutine. Damage initiation has been assessed using Hashin's failure criteria and the Matzenmiller model was adopted for damage evolution. A second finite element model was developed using Abaqus and Autodesk Simulation Composite Analysis (ASCA) in which ASCA was used to implement the user-material subroutine. The subroutine includes a failure initiation criterion based upon multi-continuum theory (MCT) and an energy-based damage evolution law. Numerical and experimental strain results were presented and compared for different section lines on the outer surface of the laminate at different loading stages. Additionally, the experimentally measured notched composite strength was compared with the predictions from the finite element solutions. These results are used as baseline for subsequent comparison with strain profiles obtained using DIC for specimens fatigued at different stress levels and fatigue lifetime fractions. The results showed a significant effect of fatigue damage development on strain redistribution even at early stages of fatigue. The results also showed the capability of DIC technique to identify damage initiation and its location. Furthermore, X-ray computed tomography (CT) was used to examine the sequence of damage development throughout the fatigue lifetime and to connect the observed damage mechanisms with the occurred change of strain profiles. Experimental vibrational modal analysis tests were also conducted to assess the effect of fatigue damage on the residual frequency responses (RFRs). Vibrational measurements were initially performed on pristine notched composites. The results are used as baseline for subsequent comparison with strain profiles obtained with DIC. Finite element models based on the classical plate theory (Kirchhoff) and the shear deformable theory (Mindlin) within the framework of equivalent single-layer and layer-wise concepts as well as the three-dimensional theory of elasticity are developed to predict the natural frequencies of non-fatigued specimen. These models are implemented using the finite element software, Abaqus, to determine the natural frequencies and the corresponding mode shapes. In addition, an analytical model based on Kirchhoff plate theory is developed. Using this approach, an equivalent bending-torsion beam model for cantilever laminated plates is extracted taking into account the reduction in local stiffness and mass induced by the center hole. Numerical and analytical natural frequency values are then compared with those obtained through experimental vibrational tests, and the accuracy of each finite element (FE) and analytical model type is assessed. It is shown that the natural frequencies obtained using the analytical and FE models are within 8% of the experimentally determined values. Ph. D.

Abstract:

Il miglioramento dei protocolli terapeutici per pazienti affetti da tumore ha portato ad alzare notevolmente la sopravvivenza media dal momento in cui è stato diagnosticato il cancro. Questo fatto ha implicato d’altra parte un crescendo dell’incidenza delle metastasi ossee. Questo fatto porta le vertebre interessate ad andare incontro ad un maggior rischio di frattura, motivo per cui il clinico deve valutare se intervenire chirurgicamente su di un soggetto già debilitato dalla cura del tumore primario. Per questa ragione, il paziente deve essere sottoposto a stabilizzazione solo se vi è un alto rischio di frattura. In caso contrario, si procederà con il solo percorso di radioterapia, abbinato a trattamenti sistemici. Ove possibile questa seconda strada è ovviamente da preferirsi. Per decidere quale trattamento prescrivere attualmente il clinico valuta il rischio di frattura delle vertebre con metastasi attraverso lo Spinal Instability in Neoplastic Disease, che però non presenta chiare linee guida lasciando spesso la classificazione a discrezione del medico e della sua esperienza clinica. Non essendo possibile testare in vivo la resistenza meccanica delle vertebre, una delle alternative per valutare quantitativamente il rischio di frattura, si basa sull’utilizzo di modelli ad elementi finiti paziente specifici generati a partire da immagini di tomografia computerizzata. Per poter utilizzare questi modelli come supporto alla pratica clinica è necessario prima averli validati, ovvero aver valutato la loro credibilità tramite confronta tra predizione e misura. Il lavoro di tesi si è concentrato sullo sviluppo di modelli ad elementi finti subject-specific di vertebra metastatica e sulla procedura di validazione delle predizioni in termini di spostamenti e deformazioni nel segmento osseo ottenute dal modello con risultati di misura sperimentale ottenuti tramite DIC.

Abstract:

Further understanding of mesoscale slip mechanics is crucial to future development of polycrystalline metals with improved performance. The research contained within this thesis aims to characterize localized mesoscale slip on slip bands further through two studies. First, a comprehensive comparison of slip system identification techniques was carried out to further validate each method as well as compare advantages and disadvantages of each. Second, slip bands in the presence of grain boundaries were studied to better characterize the dislocation content and behavior. In the first study, the use of SEM-DIC, AFM, ECCI, and HR-EBSD to characterize slip-system activity was assessed on the same material volume of Ti-7Al. This study presents a robust comparison of the various methods for the first time, including an assessment of their advantages and disadvantages, and how they can be used effectively in a complementary manner. The analysis of the different approaches was carried out in a blind manner independently at three different universities. A Ti-7Al specimen was deformed in uniaxial tension to approximately 3% axial strain, and the active slip systems were independently identified using (i) trace analysis; (ii) in-SEM digital image correlation, (iii) observations of residual dislocations from ECCI, and (iv) long-range rotation gradients through HR-EBSD, with consistent trace identification in all cases. Displacement data from AFM was used to augment the SEM-DIC displacement data by providing complementary out of plane displacement information. Furthermore, short-range dislocation gradients (measured by DIC) provided insight into the residual geometrically necessary dislocation (GND) content, and was consistent with the GND content extracted from EBSD data and ECCI images, confirming the presence of residual GNDs on the dominant slip systems resulting in visible slip bands. These approaches can be used in tandem to provide multi-modal information on slip band identification, strain and orientation gradients, out-of-plane displacements, and the presence of GNDs and SSDs, all of which can be used to inform and validate the development of dislocation-based crystal plasticity and strain gradient models. In the second study, shear strain profiles along slip bands in a modified Rolls-Royce nickel superalloy (RR1000) were analyzed for a tensile sample deformed by 2%. The strain increased with distance away from a grain boundary (GB), with maximum shear strain towards the center of the grain, indicating that dislocation nucleation generally occurred in the grain interior. The strain gradients in the neighborhood of the GBs were quantified and generally correlated with rotation about the active slip system line direction. This leads to an ability to determine the active slip system in these regions. The dislocation spacing and pileup stresses were inferred. The dislocation spacing closely follows an Eshelby analytical solution for a single ended pileup of dislocations under an applied stress. The distribution of pileup stress values for GBs of a given misorientation angle follows a log-normal distribution, with no correlation between the pileup stress and the GB misorientation angle. Furthermore, there is no observed correlation between various transmissivity factors and slip band pileup stress. Hence it appears that the obstacle strength of any of the observed GBs is adequate to facilitate the dislocation pileups present in the slip bands. However, slip band transmission does correlate with transmissivity factors, with the current study focusing on the Luster and Morris m'-factor. Observation of strain profiles of transmitted bands indicate dislocation nucleation locations.

Abstract:

This thesis presents work on investigations into the mechanical properties of connective tissue. A model system of hydrogels was used to investigate how volume change through water flow is coupled to relaxation. This was done using digital image correlation (DIC) and a custom built setup. It was found, in hydrogels, that water loss is directly coupled to an increase in tension and water intake is directly coupled to tension relaxation. The experimental setup was tested by investigating the mechanical properties of the well known material polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and the novel materials of carbon nanotube (CNT) elastomers, cholesteric liquid crystal elastomers (CLCEs), and 3D polydomain liquid crystal elastomers (3DLCEs). The setup accurately demonstrated the incompressibility of PDMS, even at short time scales, and demonstrated how DIC can map the inhomogeneity of material by locating clusters of CNTs in CNT elastomers by how they deform. Novel results for 3DLCEs were also found, where it was discovered that there is a softening of the bulk modulus at small time scales resulting in a volume increase following deformation, the bulk modulus then recovers and there is over all no volume change. This is in stark contrast to the typical case, where it is the shear modulus that becomes comparable to the bulk modulus, resulting in increased volume. A theoretical investigation was carried out into critical damping in viscoelastic oscillators, where the aim was to apply to the findings to connective tissue. The fractional Maxwell model and zener model where both solved for, where it was found that damping decreases as the material becomes more solid and the peak of critical damping becomes broader. Finally, investigations into how strain relates to the viscoelastic properties of connective tissue were carried out on horse tendon and rat fascia. How relaxation changes was determined through the relaxation constant, where a large constant means it takes the sample longer to relax and it is more solid like. It was found, that in general, the relaxation constant increases quickly with an imposed strain and then either stabilises or increases more slowly. This growth of relaxation constant also occurs during the initial stages of tissue injury, where irreversible deformation occurs.

Abstract:

Three dimensional (3D) woven composites have attracted the interest of academia and industry thanks to their damage tolerance characteristics and automated fabric manufacturing. Although much research has been conducted to investigate their out-of-plane "through thickness" properties, still their in-plane properties are not fully understood and rely on extensive experimentation. The aim of this work is to study the electromechanical behaviour of three different fibre architectures of 3D woven composites "orthogonal (ORT), layer-to-layer (LTL) and angle interlock (AI)" loaded, in three different orientations "warp (0º), weft (90º) and off-axis (45º)", in quasi-static tension. Stress/strain response is captured as well as damage initiation and evolution up to final failure. The ORT architecture demonstrated a superior behaviour, in the off-axis direction, demonstrated by high strain to failure (~23%) and high translaminar energy absorption (~40 MJ/m3). The z-binder yarns in ORT suppress delamination and allow larger fibre rotation during the fibre "scissoring motion" that enables further strain to be sustained. In-situ electrical resistance variation is monitored using a four-probe technique to correlate the resistance variation with the level of damage induced while loading. Monotonic and cyclic "load/unload" tests are performed to investigate the effect of piezo-resistivity and residual plasticity on resistance variation while damage is captured by X-ray scanning during interrupted tests at predefined load levels. In addition, this study investigates the potential of using 3D woven composites in joint assemblies through open-hole tension and "single fastener double-lap joint" bearing strength tests. 3D woven composites in the off-axis orientation, especially ORT, demonstrate a potential for overcoming some of the major challenges for composite joints' applications which are the pseudo-ductility, stress redistribution away from the notch and notch insensitivity. Finally, the study proposes a micro-mechanics based damage model to simulate the response of 3D orthogonal woven composites loaded in tension. The proposed model differs from classical damage mechanics approaches in which the evolution law is obtained by retrofitting global experimental observations.

Com os crescentes movimentos ecolÃgicos em todo o mundo, onde o objetivo principal visa conscientizar e estimular a populaÃÃo mundial a poupar os recursos naturais, aliado a necessidade de se desviar os resÃduos aterrados (sanitÃrios ou industriais), de forma a reduzir os problemas ambientais e de saÃde pÃblica, decorrentes da disposiÃÃo inadequada de resÃduos sÃlidos, surgem os incentivos a reciclagem de materiais, bem como o desenvolvimento de materiais biodegradÃveis. Diante deste contexto, os materiais compÃsitos reforÃados com fibras naturais ganham destaque no meio cientÃfico. No entanto, seu uso ainda Ã tido com desconfianÃa, devido ao pouco ou nenhum conhecimento desses promissores materiais. Perante essa problemÃtica, surgiu a proposta deste trabalho de carÃter investigativo, em que foi pesquisado e desenvolvido um compÃsito totalmente reciclado, de matriz termoplÃstica (PVC reciclado) reforÃado, com fibras obtidas da casca de cocos verdes descartados. Para esse objetivo foram utilizadas diversas ferramentas de caracterizaÃÃo fÃsica, quÃmica, tÃrmica e mecÃnica, sendo os valores dos campos de deformaÃÃo obtidos pela CorrelaÃÃo de Imagem Digital (CID), comparando a imagem do corpo nÃo deformado com imagens do corpo deformado. E finalmente, avaliou-se os processos de danificaÃÃo do compÃsito, atravÃs da caracterizaÃÃo experimental da evoluÃÃo do dano isotrÃpico pelos mÃtodosda variaÃÃo do MÃdulo de Elasticidade efetivo (ensaio de traÃÃo com carga e descarga) e pelo Ãndice de Tsai-Wu com os parÃmetros constitutivos da funÃÃo tangente hiperbÃlica, onde os valores encontrados, em ambos os mÃtodos, mantiveram-se dentro da faixa esperada para compÃsitos, 0,20 â 0,50. With increasing the ecological movements around the world, whose the main objective aims to raise awareness and encourage the world's population to save natural resources, coupled with the need to divert grounded waste (sanitary or industrial) in order to reduce environmental problems and public health, arising f rom the improper disposal of solid waste, emerge incentives for recy cling, and the development of biodegradable materials. Given this context, the composites reinforced with natural fibers began to be highlighted in the scientific community. However, its utilization is still seen with suspicion due to little or no knowledge of these pr omising materials. Faced with this problem, arose the proposal of this investigative character work, in with it was researched and devel oped a fully recycled composite, of thermoplastic matrix (recycl ed PVC) reinforced with fibers obtained from the bark of green coconut s discarded. For this objective were used various tools of physical, chemical, thermal and mechanical characterization, whose amounts of d eformation fields were obtained by Digital Image Correlation (DIC), c omparing the image of the body not deformed with images of the deforme d body. Finally, we assessed the processes of damage of the composite, through experimental characterization of the evolution of t he isotropic damage by the methods of varying the effective elastic mod ulus (tensile test with loading and unloading) and by Tsai-Wu index wi th the parameters constitutive of hyperbolic tangent function, where the values found, in both methods, were within the expected range for composite, from 0.20 to 0.50.

Abstract:

Les matériaux composites 3D obtenus par couture ou piquage transverses présentent de nombreux atouts comparativement aux tissages interlocks ou orthogonaux 3D. Dans le but d’évaluer le potentiel de cette nouvelle génération de matériaux 3D, certaines études ont été consacrées à leur caractérisation mécanique. D’autres études se sont focalisées sur l’influence de certains types de coutures sur la perméabilité de matériaux cousus de type NCF (Non Crimp Fabrics). Cette thèse se propose d’étudier l’apport des coutures de type Tufting dans le renforcement transverse de tissus classiques 2D. Cet apport est évalué, conjointement, du point de vue mécanique et du point de vue de la perméabilité. Parmi les nombreux paramètres de couture, l’étude s’est focalisée sur l’influence de la densité de couture. A ce titre, trois différentes densités de coutures ont été réalisées, grâce à un robot de couture disponible au sein de notre laboratoire. Du point de vue de la perméabilité, les préformes cousues ont été réalisées avec des empilements identiques à ceux des préformes non cousues. L’évaluation des perméabilités a été conduite à travers un banc de mesure de perméabilité à flux unidirectionnel. Avec cette méthode, le tenseur de perméabilité plane est obtenu à travers trois mesures unidirectionnelles : 0° (chaine), 90° (trame) et 45°. L’analyse des résultats montre que la couture de type Tufting induit un effet atténuateur du rapport d’anisotropie K1/K2. D’autre part, il ressort que la position du fil de couture provoque des gradients de perméabilités locaux, très prononcés entre la surface et le cœur de la préforme. Pour les besoins de la caractérisation mécanique, six plaques composites ont été réalisées par le procédé RTM. Pour atteindre les caractéristiques mécaniques hors-plan, des plaques de 20 mm d’épaisseur, cousues et non cousues ont été réalisées. La CIN (Corrélation d’Image Numérique) a été utilisée pour cartographier les distributions des champs de déplacement lors des essais mécaniques (traction, compression sur cube et flexion en poutre courte), ceci afin de tenir compte de la présence des coutures au sein des matériaux. Les performances mécaniques évaluées se sont révélées bien en deçà des attentes, surtout en ce qui concerne les caractéristiques hors-plan. L’analyse micrographique des matériaux a révélé la présence de porosités concentrées au sein, ou dans le voisinage proche, des coutures. D’autre part, les coutures présentaient des courbures ou vrillages, provoquées par le compactage lors de la fermeture du moule RTM.En faisant le lien avec les résultats de perméabilité, il ressort que la présence des porosités au sein des coutures est une conséquence des gradients de perméabilité qui induisent des refermetures de flux d’imprégnation 3D composite materials, which obtained by stitching or tufting, have many advantages compared to the 3D orthogonal weaves or interlocks. ln order to evaluate the potential of this new generation of 3D materials, some studies have been devoted to their mechanical properties. Other studies have focused on the influence of certain types of seams on the permeability of materials such as NCF (Non Crimp Fabrics).This thesis is to study the contribution of seams through the thickness of reinforcement 2D classic fabrics. This contribution is evaluated the mechanical properties and their permeability at the same time. Among many stitching parameters, the study focused on the influence of the stitching density. Three different seams densities were carried out through a robot available in our laboratory.ln terms of permeability, the stitched preforms were laminated those of identical unstitched preforms by using Tufting.The evaluation of permeability was conducted in an unsaturated regime through a small scale bench test by the unidirectional flow. With this method, the in-plane permeability tensor is obtained through the measured permeability in three directions : 0° (warp), 90° (weft) and 45°. The results show that the type of Tufting seams reduces the effect of anisotropy ratio Kl/K2. And it is obvious that the position of the stitching thread causes local permeability gradients very pronouncedly between the heart and the surface of the preform. For the purposes of the mechanical properties, six composite plates were made by the RTM process. To achieve mechanical properties through the thickness of the plates of 20 mm thick, stitched and unstitched performed were prepared. DIC (Digital Image Correlation) was used to detect the distribution of displacement fields during mechanical testing (tensile, compression and short bearn bending) in order to take account of the presence of seams within materials. The measured mechanical performance proved below expectations, particularly with regard to the characteristics in the third direction. Micrographie analysis of materials revealed the presence of porosity concentrated within, or near the seams. Moreover, the bends or kinks of seams were caused by compaction during closure of the RTM mold. By connecting with the permeability data, it appears that the presence of porosities in the seams is a consequence ofpermeability gradients that induce impregnation flow reclosing

Abstract:

The thesis aimed to identify fracture strain for multiaxial loading for laminate material of Al and LDPE that is mostly used in the food packing technology specially in liquid packaging industry. These materials are thin and flexible which make it difficult to handle and test it. The investigation was through applying new Nakajima test setup on such a material by designing a custom setup and 3D printing the Nakajima setup prototype to be able to use it in this study. DIC technique was used to get the results from the Nakajima test and the software used to apply the DIC technique is GOM correlate. As a validation for measurement from such a technique, a tensile test has been done and measured strains were compared with those from the specimen from the Nakajima that has smallest width as it was close to a uniaxial loading. One more validation technique was by creating a FE-model using (Abaqus software) for the biaxial loading and comparing it to the biaxial loading results that obtained from the DIC analysis.

Abstract:

Esta tese contempla o desenvolvimento de uma prensa para conformação biaxial superplástica com sistema de controle in situ e real time de pressão e de temperatura, como também um módulo de monitoramento de deformação através da técnica de correlação digital de imagem. A referida prensa é capaz de atingir durante a conformação ótimas condições superplásticas através da instrumentação e do controle dedicado dos parâmetros que caracterizam o processo de conformação fluidoestática biaxial, pressão, temperatura e taxa de deformação. São seis os principais temas abordados e desenvolvidos nessa tese: (a) técnicas, métodos e requisitos da superplasticidade da liga de titânio Ti6Al4V; (b) concepção e construção da prensa que atenda aos requisitos do projeto; (c) instrumentação do ferramental; (d) implementação do sistema de controle; (e) definição e aplicação de metodologia de ensaio superplástico para conformação fluidoestática biaxial e (f) fabricação da peça modelo. A aplicação e desenvolvimento do sistema de controle em expansão fluidoestática biaxial envolve desde a escolha das condições de conformação, determinação do ciclo de pressão, implementação de controles dedicados que atendam aos requisitos de conformação até os métodos de determinação dos coeficientes de interesse (m, n e K). Com tal instrumentação é possível determinar os coeficientes a partir de ensaios biaxiais, ao invés de simplesmente utilizar os coeficientes de ensaios de tração uniaxiais. Realizou-se um ensaio superplástico fluidoestático biaxial de chapas de liga de Ti6AL4V controlado em torno de sua condição ótima. Em suma sobre o controle, o sistema de controle térmico minimiza o intervalo de tempo de estabilização da temperatura, sem sobressinal, reduzindo o tempo de exposição do material superplástico a altas temperaturas; o sistema de controle de pressão aplica um ciclo de pressurização que é responsável por realizar a conformação de forma que resulte em uma taxa de deformação específica que represente a condição de maior índice de sensibilidade a taxa de deformação, assim se caracteriza como ponto ótimo do processo. Os principais resultados são o Ferramental instrumentado e controlado para realização de conformação superplástica em atmosfera controlada e os sistemas de controle de temperatura, pressão e deformação, validados e testados de forma integrada em ensaios de conformação superplástica This thesis contemplates the full development of a superplastic biaxial forming Press which contains an in situ and real time pressure and temperature control systems, as well as a deformation monitoring module that applies digital image correlation technique. The Press can achieve optimum superplastic forming conditions supported by dedicated instrumentation and control of the parameters that characterize the superplastic forming process; these parameters are pressure, temperature and strain rate. Six main topics are discussed: (a) techniques, methods and Ti6Al4V alloy superplastic requirements; (b) design and construction of the press that meets the project requirements; (c) Press instrumentation; (d) control system implementation; (e) definition and implementation of a new superplastic test methodology for bulge test and (f) a part model manufacturing. The application and development of the control system in biaxial forming process involves the selection of forming conditions, pressure cycle determination, implementation of dedicated controls that meet the forming requirements, besides methods for calculating important coefficients (m, n K). With the referred instrumentation, it is possible to determine these coefficients from biaxial tests, rather than simply using the uniaxial tensile tests coefficients. A Ti6Al4V alloy fluid static superplastic biaxial test was conducted, controlled around its optimum condition. Summarizing the control system, the thermal control system minimizes the stabilization temperature time, avoiding temperature overshooting, reducing the material time exposure at superplastic temperatures. The pressure control system applies a pressurization cycle, responsible for conducting the forming process, to achieve a specific strain rate. This represents the condition of maximum strain rate sensitivity, thus characterized as optimal process point. The main results are the instrumented and controlled superplastic biaxial forming Press efficient to conduct superplastic forming in a controlled atmosphere, and temperature, pressure and deformation control systems validated and tested in an integrated Superplastic forming tests.

Abstract:

Formable Advanced High-Strength Steels (AHSS) have a unique combination of strength and ductility, making them ideal in the effort to lightweight vehicles. The AHSS in this study, Quenched and Partitioned 1180, rely on the Transformation Induced Plasticity (TRIP) effect, in which retained austenite (RA) grains transform to martensite during plastic deformation, providing extra ductility via the transformation event. Understanding the factors involved in RA transformation, such as local strain and grain attributes, is therefore key to optimizing the microstructure of these steels. This research seeks to increase understanding of those attributes and the correlations between microstructure and RA transformation in TRIP steels. To measure local strain, the viability of using forescatter detector (FSD) images as the basis for DIC study is investigated. Standard FSD techniques, along with an integrated EBSD / FSD approach (Pattern Region of Interest Analysis System), are both analyzed. Simultaneous strain and microstructure maps are obtained for tensile deformation up to around 6% strain. The method does not give sub-grain resolution, and surface feature evolution prevents DIC analysis across large strain steps; however, the data is easy to obtain and provides a natural set of complementary information for the EBSD analysis. In-situ tensile tests combined with EBSD allow RA grain and neighboring attributes to be characterized and corresponding transformation data to be obtained. However, pseudo-symmetry of the ferrite (BCC) and martensite (BCT) phases prevents EBSD from accurately identifying all phases. Measuring the relative distortion of the crystal lattice, tetragonality, is one approach to identifying the phases. Unfortunately, small errors in the pattern center can cause significant errors in tetragonality measurement. Therefore, this research utilizes a new approach for accurate pattern center determination using a strain minimization routine and applies it to tetragonality maps for phase identification. Tetragonality maps based on dynamically simulated patterns result in the most accurate maps and can also be used to predict approximate local carbon content. Machine learning is then used on the collected data to isolate key attributes of RA grains and provide a decision tree model to predict transformation based on those attributes. Among the most relevant attributes found, RA grain area, RA grain shape aspect ratio, a “hardness” factor, and major axis orientation are included. Possible correlations between these factors and transformation improve understanding of relevant attributes and show the advantage that machine learning can have in unravelling complex material behavior.

Abstract:

In these recent years, the strengthening of masonry building has known a massive use of CFRP sheets. Those composite materials glued on the elements to reinforce are exposed to prematurely debonding crisis due to a tension load which is much smaller than the tensile strength of the CFRP. A way to upgrade failure load of CFRP-to-support bonded joint is to reinforce the cohesion between the fibers and the support by the use of mechanicals anchors built with the same fibers of the composite and fastened in the support like nails . Research on the use of anchors for masonry supports has been limited and there are no experimental analyses related to the design and the placement of fiber anchors. The aim of this thesis is to provide experimental data to quantify the efficiency of the carbon fiber anchors applied on a reinforced fire brick. This is a ground work to study CFRP to masonry bonded joint fastened by fiber nails . Specifically, the analysis of the displacement and the strain fields of the reinforced surface have been realized by means of Digital Image Correlation (DIC), an optical appealing method never used to study a FRP to support bonded joint fastened by FRP anchor. The experimental analyses shown that the CFRP anchors applied onto a CFRP to support bonded joint permit to achieve two main advantages: 1) The increase of the maximal load peak 2) The attribution of a resistance post peak, and therefore, the increase of the ductility of the reinforced system.

Abstract:

The rehabilitation of existing masonry elements through jacketing of columns using composite materials is becoming a remarkable technique in several applications that aim to increase the strength of existing masonry building. An experimental campaign was conducted with Steel- and -Basalt Fiber Reinforced Cementitious Matrix (FRCM) systems, in order to test new products that might increase the advantages in terms of good adhesion to masonry substrate, breathability of the system, efficiency in aggressive environments, ease of installation and reversibility, which are essential for the preservation of historical buildings. The mean objective of this experimental study was to investigate the state of the improvement of square masonry columns, built in alternate stretcher and header bond configuration using as material confinement Steel- and-Basalt FRCM system, subjected to axial compression. Moreover, the effectiveness and influence of the confinement in terms of load-bearing capacity and strain distribution with respect to unconfined prisms was carried out. An optical technique, known as Digital Image Correlation (DIC), was employed to understand the interaction between the unit masonry components.

L’attività sperimentale presentata in questo elaborato è focalizzata sull’analisi del comportamento a flessione di provini realizzati con tecnologia SLM (Selective Laser Melting), al fine di realizzarne una completa caratterizzazione in campo elastico. L’obiettivo è, quindi, quello di fornire informazioni specifiche sulle proprietà meccaniche di tali strutture reticolari (anche denominate “lattice”) in CrCoMo, in modo tale che esse possano poi essere implementate nell’analisi FEM (Finite Element Method) di veri e propri oggetti realizzati con tale tecnologia; ad esempio nel caso in esame, per la realizzazione di protesi che garantiscano ottimi livelli di resistenza meccanica e di resistenza all’usura, e che al contempo, grazie alla geometria e alla porosità controllata che contraddistingue tali strutture, permettano l’osteointegrazione della componente protesica post impianto. Il lavoro di analisi tensionale delle strutture lattice è stato possibile grazie all’impiego di una pressa meccanica appositamente costruita ed utilizzando un sistema di misurazione ottico costituto da una telecamera. Le immagini dei provini, ottenute a valori dei carichi flessionali crescenti, hanno così permesso la caratterizzazione del provino mediante DIC (Digital Image Correlation). I test sperimentali svolti e i risultati ottenuti hanno consentito una completa caratterizzazione a flessione delle diverse strutture lattice in CrCoMo studiate; quindi si è compiuto un passo avanti verso la possibilità di attuare, in futuro, analisi FEM su componenti realizzati con queste particolari strutture.

Abstract:

Dans les dernières années, le renforcement des bâtiments en maçonnerie a connu une usure massive des bandes CFRP. Ces matériaux composites, attachés sur les éléments à renforcer, sont exposés à une fracture prématurée pour délaminage (...). Une façon pour accroître la résistance maximale du système renforcé par CFRP est d'améliorer la cohésion entre support et composite en utilisant des ancrages mécaniques. Ces derniers sont réalisés en utilisant les mêmes typologies de fibres de renforcement et en les insérant dans le support comme des «clous». Les recherches scientifiques sur l'usure de cette façon d'ancrage sur support en maçonnerie ont été très limitées et, dans ce contexte, il n'y a pas d'études expérimentales sur le projet et le placement des ancrages. L'objectif principal du présent travail de thèse est de quantifier l'efficacité des ancrages en fibre de carbone appliqués sur brique (...) par les bandes CFRP. Cette recherche est la première phase d'une étude plus vaste sur les systèmes de maçonnerie-CFRP renforcés par « carbon fiber anchor ». Dans l'étude, l'analyse des déplacements et des déformations de la surface renforcée a été faite en utilisant la Corrélation des Images (DIC), une avantageuse méthode optique jamais utilisée pour l'étude des systèmes «support-CFRP band- ancrages».Le présent travail de thèse démontre que les ancrages en CFRP augmentent le résistance maximale et la ductilité des renforcements par bande de composites. Donc, cette typologie d'ancrage augmente la sécurité des personnes pendant les tremblements de terre et ne permettent pas la fracture fragile de la structure renforcée. La corrélation des images a été un bon outil pour l'étude des déformations, des avantages et des inconvénients de cette méthode et ont été évalué pendant la recherche In these recent years, the strengthening of masonry building has known a massive use of CFRP sheets. Those composite materials glued on the elements to reinforce are exposed to prematurely debonding crisis due to a tension load which is much smaller than the tensile strength of the CFRP. A way to upgrade failure load of CFRP-to-support bonded joint is to reinforce the cohesion between the fibers and the support by the use of mechanicals anchors built with the same fibers of the composite and fastened in the support like “nails”. Research on the use of anchors for masonry supports has been limited and, in this framework, there are no experimental analyses related to the design and the placement of fiber anchors. The aim of this thesis is to provide experimental data to quantify the efficiency of the carbon fiber anchors applied on a reinforced fire brick. This is a ground work to study CFRP to masonry bonded joint fastened by fiber “nails”. Specifically, the analysis of the displacement and the strain fields of the reinforced surface have been realized by means of Digital Image Correlation (DIC), an optical appealing method never used to study a FRP to support bonded joint fastened by FRP anchor. The research demonstrates that the use of the CFRP anchor increases the resistance and the ductility of the reinforcements. The latter are important to augment the mechanical features of the structural members and, especially, to increase the safety of people during earthquakes by avoiding the brittle collapse of the strengthened elements. The digital image correlation has been a good tool for the strain field analysis; strengths and weaknesses of this method have been evaluated

Abstract:

The course of polymer film functioning has been a crucial concern in the advent of packaging technology. The thesis project aims towards obtaining an understanding of mechanical properties for a class of these materials, namely LDPE and PET. A constitutive understanding of this behavior in the case of LDPE is acquired through incorporating a plastic stress strain relationship in an iterative approach with focus put on the sensitivity of a few parameters by following a simple linear curve-fit technique in a way that the global as well as the local response are predictable. FE-models also developed in this way are validated with experimental data. An inverse analysis testing validity or usefulness of DIC technique in identifying a material model is done and some discussions are drawn towards this area. A relative numerical study with respect to experimentally obtained global response for tearing of these polymers is done through use of a similar material model developed from tensile tests and the challenges faced in this area have been addressed.

Abstract:

A broad area of the troublesome bound to the mechanical design of structures is represented by the ability of including in the engineering analysis all the non linearity effects expressed by the ductile materials, often disregarded to obtain a clearer and simpler description of the phenomena. The frequently used “isotropic approach” and the choice of focusing only on the linear-elastic phase of the materials are the most important reasons behind the success of these design choices. Years after years, following the constant improvements in structures, in the material’s geometries and innovative shapes the designers are compelled to take into account all the situations in which the materials behave in a non-linear fashion, especially when they’re loaded with critical stress states. Baseline or induced anisotropic phenomena, shear bandind, cinematic and isotropic hardening.,strain rate dependency, thermal effects, the loosing of the original mechanical properties, are just a part of a bigger list of factors that affect the deformation properties of a body, leading to many complications in the theoretical analysis of solids and structures. To solve this problematic, the mathematical models used to include into the calculation the above cited effects (obtaining important results in terms of accuracy and reality of the description) lead to a much more complicate analytical formulation and a large increasing of all the experimental procedures connected with the parameters identification. Even if there’s an undeniable positive effect in the theoretical description of the material behavior and the phenomena investigated, on the other hand an important increase of all the numerical and experimental costs and time consumption required is evident. Between all the possible non linearity effects in this thesis we focused only on the damage process and the anisotropic elasto-plasticity that, with no doubts, have a fundamental role to correctly modelling the ductile material behavior utilized in the gas/oil onshore and offshore pipelines. After a short historical review of the most important solutions that were presented in the specialized literature, two different macro-mechanical damage model are analyzed in details: the the Lemaitre and Wierzbicki-Xue models. This choice was made to evaluate from different point of view the differences in the determination procedures of the material features along the deformation pattern. Both the models were implemented and tested through two customized damage user-subroutines for the FE software Msc.Marc. The results obtained from the numerical simulations were checked using an optical method to evaluate the real displacement maps. The strain/ displacement maps were recorded in situ using a Digital Image Correlation technique on some particular aluminum specimens designed to highlight the inconsistencies of the two selected solutions. While the first part of the work only pertain to the ductile damage procedures, the second part of the thesis, is focused on the large strain formulation for elasto-plastic anisotropic solids: the theoretical basis and the numerical algorithms are presented here and used to describe the constitutive relations for both the isotropic and anisotropic cases. This background will be an essential part to essential part to move forward to "small deformation" case and introduce the Bathe-Montans plasticity model for the anisotropic solids. The Bathe-Montans model was implemented writing an UMAT subroutine for the FE code Abaqus Standard and numerically tested using different material and geometry/meshes. To validate the results, some numerical comparisons will be presented and moreover some numerical-experimental results obtained simulating particular classes of steel used in the onshore and offshore oil/gas pipeline will be shown to demonstrate the description ability and the accuracy of the model proposed.

Abstract:

This thesis focuses on the effect of microstructural variation on the mechanical properties and deformation behavior of ductile iron. To research and determine these effects, two grades of ductile iron, (i) GJS-500-7 and (ii) high silicon GJS-500-14, were cast in a geometry containing several plates with different section thicknesses in order to produce microstructural variation. Microstructural investigations as well as tensile and hardness tests were performed on the casting plates. The results revealed higher ferrite fraction, graphite particle count, and yield strength in the high silicon GJS-500-14 grade compared to the GJS-500-7 grade. To study the relationship between the microstructural variation and tensile behavior on macroscale, tensile stress-strain response was characterized using the Ludwigson equation. The obtained tensile properties were modeled, based on the microstructural characteristics, using multiple linear regression and analysis of variance (ANOVA). The models showed that silicon content, graphite particle count, ferrite fraction, and fraction of porosity are the major contributing factors that influence tensile behavior. The models were entered into a casting process simulation software, and the simulated microstructure and tensile properties were validated using the experimental data. This enabled the opportunity to predict tensile properties of cast components with similar microstructural characteristics. To investigate deformation behavior on micro-scale, a method was developed to quantitatively measure strain in the microstructure, utilizing the digital image correlation (DIC) technique together with in-situ tensile testing. In this method, a pit-etching procedure was developed to generate a random speckle pattern, enabling DIC strain measurement to be conducted in the matrix and the area between the graphite particles. The method was validated by benchmarking the measured yield strength with the material’s standard yield strength. The microstructural deformation behavior under tensile loading was characterized. During elastic deformation, strain mapping revealed a heterogeneous strain distribution in the microstructure, as well as shear bands that formed between graphite particles. The crack was initiated at the stress ranges in which a kink occurred in the tensile curve, indicating the dissipation of energy during both plastic deformation and crack initiation. A large amount of strain localization was measured at the onset of the micro-cracks on the strain maps. The micro-cracks were initiated at local strain levels higher than 2%, suggesting a threshold level of strain required for micro-crack initiation. A continuum Finite Element (FE) model containing a physical length scale was developed to predict strain on the microstructure of ductile iron. The material parameters for this model were calculated by optimization, utilizing the Ramberg-Osgood equation. The predicted strain maps were compared to the strain maps measured by DIC, both qualitatively and quantitatively. To a large extent, the strain maps were in agreement, resulting in the validation of the model on micro-scale. In order to perform a micro-scale characterization of dynamic deformation behavior, local strain distribution on the microstructure was studied by performing in-situ cyclic tests using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). A novel method, based on the focused ion beam (FIB) milling, was developed to generate a speckle pattern on the microstructure of the ferritic ductile iron (GJS-500-14 grade) to enable quantitative DIC strain measurement to be performed. The results showed that the maximum strain concentration occurred in the vicinity of the micro-cracks, particularly ahead of the micro-crack tip. Denna avhandling fokuserar på effekten av variationer i mikrostrukturen på mekaniska egenskaper och deformationsbeteende hos segjärn. För att undersöka dessa effekter, två olika sorter av segjärn, (i) GJS-500-7 och (ii) högkisellegerad GJS-500-14, gjutits till plattor av olika tjocklekar för att generera mikrostrukturvariationen. Mikrostrukturundersökning, samt drag- och hårdhetsprov gjordes på de gjutna plattorna. Resultaten visade att en högre ferritfraktion, grafitpartikelantal och sträckgräns i den högkisellegerade GJS-500-14-sorten jämfört med GJS-500-7. För att studera förhållandet mellan mikrostrukturell variation och spännings-töjningsbeteendet på makroskala, modellerades detta med hjälp av Ludwigson-ekvationen. De erhållna spännings-töjningsegenskaperna modellerades baserat på mikrostrukturell karaktäristika genom multipel linjärregression och variansanalys (ANOVA). Modellerna visade att kiselhalt, grafitpartikelantal, ferritfraktion och porfraktion var de viktigaste bidragande faktorerna. Modellerna implementerades i ett simuleringsprogram för gjutningsprocessen. Resultatet från simuleringen validerades med hjälp av experimentella data som inte ingick i underlaget för regressionsanalysen. Detta möjliggjorde att prediktera spännings-töjningsbeteendet och dess variation hos gjutna segjärns komponenter med liknande sammansättning och gjutna tjocklekar som användes i denna studie. För att kunna undersöka deformationsbeteendet på mikroskala utvecklades en metod för kvantitativ mätning av töjning i mikrostrukturen, genom DIC-tekniken (digital image correlation) tillsammans med in-situ dragprovning. I denna metod utvecklades en grop-etsningsprocess för att generera ett slumpvis prickmönster, vilket möjliggjorde DIC-töjningsmätning i matrisen och i området mellan grafitpartiklarna med tillräcklig upplösning. Metoden validerades genom benchmarking av den uppmätta sträckgränsen mot materialets makroskopiska sträckgräns mätt med konventionell dragprovning. Det mikrostrukturella deformationsbeteendet under dragbelastning karakteriserades. Under elastisk deformation avslöjade töjningsmönstret en heterogen töjningsfördelning i mikrostrukturen, och bildandet av skjuvband mellan grafitpartiklar. Sprickbildning initierades vid låg spänning och redan vid de spänningsnivåer som ligger vis ”knät” på dragprovningskurvan, vilket indikerar energidissipering genom både begynnande plastisk deformation och sprickbildning. Den lokala töjningen vis sprickinitiering skedde då den lokala töjningen översteg 2%, vilket indikerar att detta skulle kunna vara en tröskelnivå för den töjning som erfordras för initiering av mikro-sprickor. En kontinuum Finita Element (FE) modell utvecklades för att prediktera töjningen hos ett segjärn och dess fördelning i segjärns mikrostruktur. Materialparametrarna för denna modell optimerades genom att anpassa parametrarna i Ramberg-Osgood ekvationen. De predikterade töjningsfördelningarna jämfördes med de experimentell uppmätta töjningsmönstren uppmätta med DIC, både kvalitativt och kvantitativt. Töjningsmönstren överensstämde i stor utsträckning, vilket resulterade i att modellerna kunde anses vara validerade på mikronivå. För att kunna mäta töjningsmönster under dynamiska förlopp på mikronivå utvecklades en metod för att skapa prickmönster och att utföra in-situ CT provning i ett svepeletronmikroskop (SEM). Prickmönstret skapades genom avverkning med en fokuserad jonstråle (FIB), och provades på det ferritiska segjärnet (GJS-500-14 grad). Resultaten visade att maximal töjningskoncentration fanns i närheten av mikrosprickorna, framförallt framför sprickspetsen.

Abstract:

In current enterprises, simulations are being utilized to lessen the cost of product advancement. Along this line, there is an awesome enthusiasm for enhancing precision and accuracy of simulations. For an accurate and reliable simulation, it is essential to use an accurate material model and provide it with accurate material information. In exhibit industries, orthotropic materials are being simulated utilizing isotropic material model, as orthotropic material model requires more material data which is not promptly accessible. This proposal intends to test and identify orthotropic materials and simulate them using orthotropic material model in ABAQUS. Materials utilized as a part of this proposal are Aluminium, LDPE, PET. Required material data was gotten by performing Uni-directional tensile tests, DIC, and an algorithm we developed in light of Inverses method. To get highly accurate material data from DIC, a few kinds of patterns were examined, and a superior pattern was resolved for camera configuration being utilized.

Abstract:

I Sverige finns en lång tradition att byggande med materialet trä men det är främst av småhus som byggts. Flerbostadshusmarknaden har länge dominerats av materialen betong och stål men med dagens syn på hållbart byggande har byggnationen av trä blivit allt mer eftertraktat. Men det finns fortfarande en del utmaningar med att bygga höga hus i trä. Med ökade antal våningar så ökar lasterna och ett problem vid byggande av höga hus med träregelstomme är stämpeltrycket på syllen. Vid för hög belastning på syllen deformeras denna vilket kan inverka på stommens stabilitet och bärförmåga. Syftet med detta examensarbete är att undersöka om en syll av korslimmat trä kan förbättra förutsättningarna för att bygga höghus med träregelstomme. I arbetet jämförs stämpeltrycket för två olika varianter av syllar med KL-trä samt med en traditionell syll. Dimensionen på syllarna är 120 x 45 mm och virkesklass C24. Idén är att utnyttja KL-träets korsande fiberriktningar för att uppnå en högre tryckhållfasthet. Vid genomförda experimentella försök mäts tryckkraft, förskjutning och töjningar av syllarna som belastades av en hydraulisk press och analyserade med hjälp av ett beröringsfritt mätsystem. Tre olika beräkningsmodeller för syll av KL-trä är framtagna och jämförs med resultatet från experimentet. Resultatet visar på att en syll av KL-trä har en betydligt högre tryckhållfasthet än en traditionell syll. Detta ger goda förutsättningar för att bygga höga hus med träregelstomme. In Sweden, there is a long tradition of building timber structures mainly for the small-house market. The multi-dwelling housing market has for long been dominated by building materials such as concrete and steel, but with today's preferences of sustainable construction materials, wood has become increasingly sought after. But there are still some challenges in building tall houses in wood. With increased number of floors, the loads increase and a problem when building high-rise buildings with wooden stud and rails system is the compression perpendicular to the grain in the bottom rail. When the bottom rail is loaded deformation occurs, which can affect the stability and bearing capacity of the structure. The aim with this bachelor thesis is to investigate whether a cross-laminated timber rail can improve the preconditions for building tall buildings with by use of timber frame. Compression perpendicular to two different CLT rails will be compared to a traditional one. The dimensions of the bottom rails are 120 x 45 mm and strength class C24. The idea is to utilize the CLT intersecting fiber directions to achieve a higher compressive strength. In the experiment, compressive force, displacement and elongation of the bottom rails are measured by means of a hydraulic press and a contact-free camera based measuring system. Three different calculation models for the CLT sills have been developed and compared with the results of the experiment. The result shows that a CLT rail has two to three times higher compressive strength compared to a traditional rail. This suggests a solution to the challenge with high compressive stresses in the rail.

Abstract:

Les enrobés bitumineux sont des matériaux composites complexes constitués de plusieurs phases : granulats, liants bitumineux et vides. L'assemblage de ces phases définit une microstructure très complexe qui pilote la réponse macroscopique des enrobés. Classiquement, les réponses mécanique et thermique des enrobés sont caractérisées par des essais à l'échelle macroscopique en supposant que le matériau est homogène et isotrope. À l’échelle des constituants, la caractérisation de ces matériaux nécessite d’utiliser une technique de mesure disposant simultanément d’une bonne résolution spatiale et d’une bonne résolution de mesure. L’enjeu de ce travail est d’une part d’évaluer les possibilités d’utilisation de la méthode de la grille (MG) pour l’analyse des propriétés thermo-mécaniques des enrobés bitumineux, et d’autre part de caractériser, grâce à l’apport de cette méthode, l’effet de l’introduction d’agrégats d’enrobés (AE). L’étude expérimentale comprend des essais de compression et de traction ainsi que des essais de gel-dégel. Les champs cinématiques issus de la MG ont permis d'étudier la réponse de ces matériaux à des échelles allant de l’échelle du constituant jusqu’à celle de l’éprouvette. Les résultats obtenus ont également permis de valider une approche expérimentale innovante pour l’analyse des enrobés en permettant d’accéder à des informations fiables et riches à l’échelle de la microstructure. Certains aspects liés à l'impact du recyclage sur le comportement local de l’enrobé sont également fournis Asphalt mixtures are complex composite materials constituted of several phases, namely aggregates, bituminous binder and voids. The assembly of these phases defines a highly complex microstructure, which drives the macroscopic response of asphalt mixtures. Classically, both the mechanical and the thermal responses of asphalt materials are characterized by using experiments at the scale of the mixture assuming that the material is homogeneous. At the scale of their constituents, these materials require a measurement technique featuring simultaneously both a good spatial resolution and a good strain resolution. To date, there are only few experimental studies available in the literature that describe the thermal and mechanical behavior of bituminous mixes at the scale of the constituent. The aim of this work is, on the one hand, to evaluate the possibilities of using the grid method (GM) for the analysis of the thermo-mechanical properties of asphalt mixtures and, on the other hand, to characterize the effect of the recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) inclusion on the local behavior of these materials. Full-field measurements provided by GM allow to study the response of these materials at scales ranging from the component to the mixture itself. These results enable us to validate an innovative experimental approach for the analysis of asphalts. It gives access to reliable and rich information at the scale of the microstructure. Some aspects related to the impact of RAP on the local behavior of asphalt were also provided

Abstract:

Le présent travail de thèse fait suite à une première étude où une stratégie d’identification des paramètres et formes des lois de zones cohésives a été élaborée pour des matériaux homogènes. L’extension au cas de matériaux présentant des hétérogénéités nécessite d’accéder localement aux champs de contraintes.Ainsi, l’objectif principal de cette étude est de mettre au point une méthode de caractérisation locale des propriétés mécaniques et des contraintes. Cette méthode est basée sur l’erreur en relation de comportement combinée à l’exploitation de la richesse des mesures de champs cinématiques planes et plus particulièrement des champs de déformations, obtenus par dérivation numérique des champs de déplacements. Cette mesure cinématique est réalisée par une technique de corrélation d’images numériques enrichie.La méthode d’identification est basée sur la minimisation itérative d’une norme énergétique faisant intervenir le tenseur élastoplastique sécant. Différentes simulations numériques ont illustré la capacité de la procédure à identifier localement des champs de propriétés hétérogènes et sa robustesse et sa stabilité vis-à-vis du bruit de mesure, du choix du jeu de paramètres d’initialisation de l’algorithme et de la finesse du maillage.Pour finir, des essais plans avec différentes géométries d’éprouvettes ont été effectués et un essai a été mis au point pour obtenir de manière maîtrisée un état initial très hétérogène. Les résultats d’identification élastoplastique multilinéaire ont montré la capacité de la méthode à identifier les lois de comportements locales sur ce matériau hétérogène The present work follows a first approach where a strategy for identifying the shape and the parameters of cohesive-zone laws has been developed for homogeneous materials. The extension of this method to heterogeneous material requires the knowledge of the local stress state.The study aims at developing a local characterization method for mechanical properties and stresses. This method is based on the constitutive equation gap principles and relies on the knowledge of mechanical kinematic fields and particularly of the strain fields. These fields are obtained by the numerical differentiation of displacement fields measured by digital image correlation.This identification method is based on the iterative minimization of an energy norm involving the secant elastoplastic tensor. Various numerical simulations were used to illustrate the performance of the procedure for locally identifying heterogeneous property fields, and to characterize its robustness and its stability with respect to noise to the values of the algorithm initialization parameter and to the mesh refinement.Finally, various experimental tests with different specimen geometries were performed and a test has been developed to obtain a controlled heterogeneous initial state. The multilinear elastoplastic identification results showed the ability of the method to identify the local behavior properties on heterogeneous materials

Abstract:

The ability to quickly develop predictions of the time-to-failure under different loading levels allows designers to choose the best polymeric material for a specific application. Additionally, it helps material producers to design, manufacture, test, and modify a polymeric material more rapidly. In the case of polymeric pipes, previous studies have shown that there are two possible time-dependent failure mechanisms corresponding to ductile and brittle failure. The ductile mechanism is evident at shorter times-to-failure and results from the stretching of the amorphous region under loading and the subsequent plastic deformation. Empirical results show that many high-performance polyethylene (PE) materials do not exhibit the brittle failure mechanism. Hence, it is critical to understand the ductile mechanism and find an approach to predict the corresponding times-to-failure using accelerated means. The aim of this study is to develop an innovative rupture lifetime acceleration protocol for PE pipes which is sensitive to the structure, orientation, and morphology changes introduced by changing processing conditions. To accomplish this task, custom fixtures are developed to admit tensile and hoop burst tests on PE pipes. A pressure modified Eyring flow equation is used to predict the rupture lifetime of PE pipes using the measured mechanical properties under axial tensile and hydrostatic pressure loading in different temperatures and strain rates. In total, the experimental method takes approximately one week to be completed and allows the prediction of pipe lifetimes for service lifetime in excess of 50 years. Master of Science

Abstract:

The current thesis focuses on the deformation behaviour and strain distribution in the microstructure of ductile iron during tensile loading. Utilizing Digital Image Correlation (DIC) and in-situ tensile test under optical microscope, a method was developed to measure high resolution strain in microstructural constitutes. In this method, a pit etching procedure was applied to generate a random speckle pattern for DIC measurement. The method was validated by benchmarking the measured properties with the material’s standard properties. Using DIC, strain maps in the microstructure of the ductile iron were measured, which showed a high level of heterogeneity even during elastic deformation. The early micro-cracks were initiated around graphite particles, where the highest amount of local strain was detected. Local strain at the onset of the micro-cracks were measured. It was observed that the micro-cracks were initiated above a threshold strain level, but with a large variation in the overall strain. A continuum Finite Element (FE) model containing a physical length scale was developed to predict strain on the microstructure of ductile iron. The materials parameters for this model were calculated by optimization, utilizing Ramberg-Osgood equation. For benchmarking, the predicted strain maps were compared to the strain maps measured by DIC, both qualitatively and quantitatively. The DIC and simulation strain maps conformed to a large extent resulting in the validation of the model in micro-scale level. Furthermore, the results obtained from the in-situ tensile test were compared to a FE-model which compromised cohesive elements to enable cracking. The stress-strain curve prediction of the FE simulation showed a good agreement with the stress-strain curve that was measured from the experiment. The cohesive model was able to accurately capture the main trends of microscale deformation such as localized elastic and plastic deformation and micro-crack initiation and propagation.

Abstract:

Les outillages de mise en forme en acier martensitique de type AISI H11 sont des pièces critiques dont le comportement en service est étroitement lié à leurs structures internes et à leur évolution. Les conditions des sollicitations lors de la mise en oeuvre du procédé est souvent à l'origine de modifications microstructurales en surface, à savoir la morphologie des lattes de martensite, les orientations cristallographiques, l'état d'écrouissage interne ou encore le profil de surface. Ces aspects peuvent éventuellement altérer les performances mécaniques de l'acier AISI H11. Afin d'appréhender et d'optimiser le comportement mécanique de celui-ci, une approche multi-échelle est mise en oeuvre dans ce travail. Celle-ci s'articule autour d'une investigation expérimentale et d'un traitement numérique. L'étude expérimentale s'attache à reproduire, à l'échelle du laboratoire, des surfaces équivalentes à celles issues lors des procédés de mise en oeuvre des outillages. Des techniques de caractérisation spécifiques, à savoir le MEB, l'EBSD, la nanoindentation ou encore l'altimétrie permettent de mettre en évidence un gradient de la stéréologie du matériau en surface et sous-surface. Les hétérogénéités locales induites concernent la morphologie des lattes de martensite, les orientations cristallographiques, l'état d'écrouissage interne mais également le profil de surface. Des essais mécaniques in-situ associés à la technique de corrélation d'images numériques sont réalisés pour des chargements monotones quasi-statiques et cycliques de type traction-traction. Une investigation des champs mécaniques locaux en surface est ainsi effectuée, elle permet d'analyser les schémas de localisations des déformations non linéaires liés aux artéfacts stéréologiques. Le traitement numérique s'intéresse à une modélisation multi-échelle, et plus particulièrement à des calculs par la méthode des éléments finis sur des microstructures virtuelles générées par tesselations de Voronoï. Celles-ci sont effectuées de manière à reproduire les structures martensitiques et considèrent des relations d'orientations spécifiques (de type Kurdjumov-Sachs) à l'issue du traitement thermique entre les lattes de martensite et le grain austénitique parent. Les équations constitutives du modèle de plasticité cristalline (élasto-viscoplastique) de Méric-Cailletaud sont implantées dans le code de calcul par éléments finis Abaqus dans le cadre de l'hypothèse des petites perturbations (HPP) et de la théorie des transformations finies. La formulation du modèle dans le contexte de la théorie des transformations finies est effectuée dans le cadre d'une description spatiale où la notion de dérivée objective est considérée. Celle-ci consiste en celle d'Oldroyd ou de Truesdell de manière à ce qu'une telle formulation soit équivalente à une description lagrangienne. Le traitement numérique a permis de reproduire de manière qualitative les schémas de localisation en surface mise en évidence lors de l'investigation expérimentale. L'influence des divers paramètres stéréologiques, évoqués ci-dessus, sur les champs mécaniques locaux a été analysée. De par cette approche, il a été possible de mettre en évidence certains mécanismes élémentaires, notamment les effets d'interaction et de surface. Enfin, il a été constaté que la prise en compte des rotations des réseaux cristallins par la théorie des transformations finies permet de relâcher certaines zones de localisation des champs mécaniques autour d'artéfacts stéréologiques AISI H11 martensitic tool steels are critical mechanical components that behaviour during service is drastically linked to their internal structures and their possible evolution. Their manufacture processes are often at the origin of microstructural changes at the surface, namely the morphology of martensitic laths, the crystallographic orientations, the internal hardening state and the surface profile These aspects can potentially alter the mechanical performance of AISI H11 martensitic steel. In order to get better insight into and optimize its mechanical behaviour, a multi-scale approach involving an experimental investigation and a numerical treatment is taken in this work.The experimental investigation focuses to reproduce, at the laboratory scale, equivalent surfaces to those resulting from tool steels manufacture processes. Specific characterization techniques, namely SEM, EBSD, nanoindentation and altimetry enable to highlight a stereology gradient of the material in surface and sub-surface. The induced local heterogeneities consist in morphology of martensitic laths and crystallographic orientations, internal hardening state and surface profile. In-situ mechanical tests with digital image correlation technique (DIC) are carried out for monotonous quasi-static and tension-tension cyclic loads. An investigation of the local mechanical fields at the surface is thus performed and allows to analyze the localizations schemes of nonlinear strains which are related to stereological artifacts.The numerical treatment is focused on a multi-scale modelling, and more particularly on finite element calculations on virtual microstructures which are generated by Voronoi tesselations. The latters are carried out such that to reproduce martensitic structures and consider a specific orientation relationship between martensitic laths and parent austenitic grains (i.e. Kurdjumov-Sachs) after the heat treatment. The constitutive equations of the (elasto-viscoplastic) crystal plasticity of Méric-Cailletaud are implemented in the finite element code Abaqus in the context of the small strain assumption and the finite strain theory. The formulation of the model in the context of finite strain theory is is given a spatial description where the notion of objective derivative, namely the so called one of Oldroyd or Truesdell, is used in such a way that such formulation is equivalent to a Lagrangian description.The numerical treatment has allowed to qualitatively reproduce the localization patterns at the surface which have been highlighted in the experimental investigation. The influence of the different stereological parameters mentioned above on the local mechanical fields was analyzed. By this approach, it was possible to highlight some elementary mechanisms including interaction and surface effects. Finally, it was found that the inclusion of lattice rotations via the theory of finite strain allows to release certain areas of mechanical fields localization that are related to stereological artifacts

Abstract:

Le procédé de soudage par friction malaxage (FSW) entraîne, d’une manière générale, une importante chute de dureté à travers le joint soudé. Dans le but de concevoir des structures aéronautiques soudées par FSW en fatigue, il est nécessaire de connaître l’impact de cette chute de dureté dans le comportement mécanique global de la soudure. Dans ces travaux, l’alliage d’aluminium à durcissement structural 2198-T8 est considéré. Une chaîne de calcul de durée de vie en fatigue d’une structure soudée par FSW est mise en place. Elle intègre un couplage de calculs et d’expériences grâce auxquels le comportement mécanique de la structure est modélisé. Dans un premier temps, le gradient de comportement mécanique de la soudure est étudié. Des essais mécaniques de traction et cycliques sont réalisés à température ambiante. La méthode de corrélation d’images numériques (DIC) est utilisée dans le but de mesurer les champs de déplacements localement dans et au voisinage du joint soudé. À partir des résultats expérimentaux, les paramètres mécaniques d’un modèle de comportement sont identifiés à partir d’un élément de volume, zone par zone à travers le joint soudé. En parallèle, une quantification des précipités durcissants T1 (Al2CuLi) est menée dans différentes zones du joint soudé à l’aide d’un Microscope Electronique en Transmission (MET). Un lien entre l’évolution de la microstructure à travers la soudure et l’évolution des paramètres mécaniques est recherché. Le modèle de comportement mécanique est utilisé sur des calculs de structure utilisant la méthode des éléments finis pour simuler le joint soudé. En parallèle, des essais de fatigue sont réalisés sur des éprouvettes uniaxiales et cruciformes soumises à des chargements uniaxiaux et multiaxiaux. À l’aide des simulations du gradient de comportement mécanique du joint soudé ainsi que des résultats mesurés en fatigue, les paramètres d’un modèle d’endommagement sont identifiés. Ce modèle est utilisé pour prédire les durées de vie en fatigue et les zones d’amorçages de fissure pour une structure soudée soumise à des chargements multiaxiaux The Friction Stir Welding (FSW) process generally induces a critical hardness decrease inside the welded joint. To design aeronautical structure welded by FSW in fatigue, it is then necessary to know the impact of this hardness drop on the constitutive behaviour of the junction. In this study, the hardening structural aluminium alloy 2198-T8 is considered.A fatigue lifetime assessment loop of a welded structure is implemented. It integrates a calculations and experiments coupling which is used to model the structure’s mechanical behaviour. The gradient mechanical behaviour of the weldment is initially studied.Monotonic and cyclic mechanical tests are carried out to room temperature. Digital Image Correlation (DIC) is used to measure local displacement fields around the junction. Based on this experimental data, mechanical parameters for a constitutive model are identified on a volume element, zone by zone across the welded joint. In parallel, a quantification of the T1 (Al2CuLi) strengthening precipitates is realized in different region of the joint with a Transmission Electron Microscope. A connection between the microstructure evolution and the mechanical parameters is researched. The gradient mechanical behaviour of the joint is assessed on a 3D structure by Finite Element Analysis. Furthermore, fatigue tests are carried out on uniaxial and multiaxial loadings welded specimen. Thanks to the mechanical behaviour model and the fatigue lifetime measured, a damage model is used to predict the fatigue lifetime and the crack initiation zone for a welded structure which is subjected to higher multiaxial loads

Abstract:

Ce travail s'inscrit dans une stratégie d'investigation expérimentale et numérique des mécanismes d'enlèvement de la matière lors de l'usinage de l'alliage de titane Ti-6Al-4V. Il aborde un problème complexe, fortement couplé, faisant intervenir la thermique et la mécanique aux petites échelles (micrométrique). Le manque de moyens de mesure dédié à ces échelles de temps et de l'espace (phénomènes rapides et très locaux) ne permet pas, à ce jour, d'appréhender précisément les phénomènes thermomécaniques mis en jeu pendant la formation de copeau. De ce fait, un dispositif spécifique, appelé VISIR, répondant à cette problématique a été mis en place. La partie expérimentale s'est donc orientée vers une compréhension plus fine des mécanismes d'enlèvement de la matière. Elle a notamment permis de mettre en évidence l'évolution de grandeurs mécaniques et thermiques durant la formation des festons mais surtout le couplage entre la température et la vitesse de déformation. Basée sur les constatations expérimentales, une étude du comportement thermomécanique de cet alliage a été mis en place. Des essais en cisaillement dynamique à travers des éprouvettes chapeau ont permis d'identifier par méthode inverse une nouvelle loi de comportement couplée en température et en vitesse de déformation. De plus, une étude de l'endommagement s'est appuyée sur l'identification et l'évaluation de huit critères communément utilisés dans le domaine de mise en forme a permis de proposer une nouvelle loi, inspirée du critère de Tresca, couplée au comportement. L'intégralité de ces formulations couplée à un modèle de frottement Stick-Slip ont enfin été implémentés dans un modèle EF 3D. La confrontation expérimentale/numérique en termes de grandeurs mécaniques et thermiques a révélé la robustesse et l'aspect prédictif du modèle EF développé. Enfin, les résultats de cette étude ont permis de développer une discussion détaillée sur les mécanismes d'enlèvement de la matière et plus particulièrement les complexes trajet des fissurations This work develops an experimental and numerical strategy in order to investigate material removal of titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V during machining process. It therefore intends to tackle a complex and strongly coupled problem, involving thermal and mechanical aspects at small scales (micrometric). The lack of measuring means dedicated to such scales in terms of time and space (rapid and strongly local phenomena) does not allow yet to precisely apprehend the thermomechanical phenomena involved during the chip formation. As a result, a specific device, called VISIR, that addresses this issue has been set-up. The experimental aspect of this work has therefore been oriented towards a more precise understanding of the material removal mechanisms. It allowed to observe the evolution of mechanical and thermal quantities during the chip formation and more precisely the strong coupling between the temperature and the strain rate. Based on these experimental insights, the thermomechanical behavior of this alloy has been studied through dynamic shear tests using hat-shaped specimens. It allowed to identify through inverse method a new constitutive equation coupled in temperature and strain rate. In addition, a study on damage is conducted. It is based on the identification and the evaluation of eight criteria commonly used in the material forming process. This leads to proposing a new damage equation, inspired from the Tresca criterion and coupled to material plastic behavior. All of these formulations along with a Stick-Slip friction model have finally been implemented in a 3D FE orthogonal cutting model. Experimental/numerical comparison in terms of mechanical and thermal quantities revealed the robustness and predictive aspect of the developed FE model. Finally, the results of this study allowed to develop a detailed discussion on the material removal mechanisms and more particularly the complexe cracks paths

Abstract:

La valutazione dell'eterogeneità delle deformazioni all'interno del tessuto osseo è importante per stabilire l'effetto delle patologie e degli interventi che riguardano il sistema scheletrico, così come per validare modelli computazionali. La Digital Volume Correlation (DVC) ha dimostrato essere una tecnica potente per misurare il campo di spostamento e deformazione all'interno dell’osso. Recenti studi hanno mostrato come la micro tomografia computerizzata a radiazione di sincrotrone (SR-microCT) può migliorare l'accuratezza della DVC. Tuttavia, in quei lavori, solamente test su scansioni ripetute (zero-strain) o spostamenti virtuali sono stati utilizzati per quantificare le incertezze della DVC, portando ad una potenziale sottostima degli errori. In questo studio, per la prima volta, le incertezze di un approccio DVC globale sono state valutate su immagini ripetute e virtualmente deformate per tenere conto sia del rumore dell'immagine che della deformazione applicata. A partire da scansioni SR-microCT di provini di osso corticale bovino, con una risoluzione nominale di 1.6 μm, sono stati simulati diversi livelli e direzioni di deformazione. Successivamente, con un software di registrazione dell’Università di Sheffield (Sheffield Image Registration Toolkit, ShIRT), combinato con un pacchetto software ad elementi finiti, sono stati calcolati i campi di deformazione. La quantificazione e la distribuzione degli errori è stata effettuata per ogni componente di deformazione. I risultati provenienti da questo lavoro di tesi hanno permesso di integrare gli studi precedenti e di ampliare le conoscenze sull'utilizzo di questa tecnica. Rimangono da testare campi di deformazione più eterogenei, come per esempio quelli provenienti da modelli agli elementi finiti, per completare la valutazione delle incertezze associate alle misure della DVC.

Abstract:

Digital Image Correlation (DIC) is a technique which uses images taken before and after deformation to determine displacement and strain data over the surface of the sample. In order to obtain this data for both in-plane as well as out-of-plane direction, multiple views of the sample are required. Typically, this is accomplished using multiple cameras, but it is possible to use diffraction gratings to bend the light coming from the specimen in order to allow a single camera to capture multiple views. This technique is referred to as Diffraction Assisted Image Correlation (DAIC) and has been previously demonstrated at room temperature. This work expands this method for use at high temperatures by incorporating the use of ultraviolet (UV) lights for illumination and filtering out the light in the visible spectrum. This increases the temperature at which useful images can be captured by reducing the glow that specimens produce at elevated temperatures. When not filtered out, this glow saturates the camera sensor making DIC impossible. This new technique is referred to as Ultraviolet Diffraction Assisted Image Correlation (UV-DAIC).

Abstract:

It was found that a significant improvement of mechanical properties of CFRPs can be achieved by the adjustment of the matrix properties such as toughness and CF/matrix adhesion via the chemical modification, as well as the physical modification by a small amount of cheap and environment-friendly nano fibers. Based on investigation of fracture mechanisms at macro/micro scale, the effects of matrix properties and nano fiber on the mechanical properties of CFRP have been discussed. Subsequently, the relationship has been characterized by a numerical model to show how to modulate the parameters of the matrix properties to achieve excellent fatigue properties of CFRP. 博士(工学) Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering 同志社大学 Doshisha University

Abstract:

La compréhension du comportement musculaire est un champ d'investigation primordial dans divers domaines tels que le sport, le crash automobile et la médecine. Peu de techniques in vivo permettent aujourd'hui de caractériser les propriétés mécaniques du muscle. Aussi, l'objectif de ce travail est de développer une méthode d'identification in vivo à partir demesures de champs de déplacement. La méthode d'identification est composée de 3 étapes interdépendantes. La première consiste à réaliser une IRM de la cuisse pour segmenter manuellement différents tissus musculaires (quadriceps, ischios, gracilis et sartorius) et le tissu adipeux. Un comportement Néo-Hookéen est choisi pour modéliser le comportement hyperélastique (C10, D). Dans un second temps, un dispositif expérimental de compression est développé pour mesurer le champ de déplacement in vivo à partir des techniques d'imagerie échographique et de Corrélation d'Images Numériques. Finalement, une méthode inverse est mise en œuvre pour identifier les paramètres C10 et D de chaque tissu. Par le biais d'un exemple numérique, l'erreur sur les paramètres identifiés est évaluée. Les cartographies des champs de déplacement expérimentaux confirment les observations qualitatives obtenues sur les images échographiques et sont validées par les champs de déformation obtenus par approximation diffuse. Une faible erreur d'identification (C10<3%, D<7%) est obtenue à partir de l'exemple numérique, et les paramètres mécaniques identifiés sont en accord avec la littérature. Ces résultats valident la démarche inverse mise en œuvre qui permettra, à terme, de suivre l'évolution des pathologies et de mener des simulations prédictives.
